If the land is not used for agriculture but for residences then
landuse=residential.
Most of the land is used for agriculture? Then landuse=farmland.
Where the land between the buildings is used for both .. I'd map it
landuse=farmland. And then
where a residence occurs - map the building, building=residential. Most
of the time mappers may have little time to give to these things though
and armchair mappers will be stuck with building=yes..

When does a wide spread village become dispersed_residential? Sorry but
the determination from one to the other will need to be made, and that
may well be country/culture specific.

The 'place' tag does not nominate the landuse, it is really just the
size, importance and name of an area.

Here in Ethopia most of the population lives in a rural setting.
Sometimes dwellings are grouped into villages, but other areas are
more dispersed. Here is an example of a residential agriculture area

A landuse= tag of Dispersed_Residential or Residential_Agriculture
would be helpful and more useful than place=locality or
place=isolated_dwelling
